JMC Concert

Ryan had his first JMC concert on the 9th January 2009 after completing his first book. Each book takes about 6 months and the entire JMC course takes 2 years.

Ryan has come a long way, from not knowing any keys to being able to play a simple piece with both hands. He has also learned solfege singing, lyric singing, ensemble (singing, rhythm and keyboard), music appreciation, rhythm training and workbook (reading/writing).

During the concert, those skills were tested and each student was required to play on the keyboard a piece which they have selected.

1. Group Presentation : Whale Sneezes



2. Solo : See You Tomorrow



3. Group rhythm : Pa-Pa-Pa Parade

Jaden also came for the concert and pretended to play on the keyboard :)

You can see from the video that Ryan's got rhythm- hand movements and marching was done in perfect timing! Well done! Its fantastic that he is taking music lessons.

As for the dog- I didn't realise, but from the pictures it looks like the dog is bigger than Jaden!
